  4. Supporting Male Victims of Domestic Abuse Day 2023

Shropshire Council are working in partnership with others across the UK to promote the domestic abuse services which can provide support to male victims of domestic abuse on Thursday 2 November to encourage more men to get in contact – and to encourage others to encourage them too. 

This is part of Supporting Male Victims of Domestic Abuse Day 2023, which is a collective and co-ordinated campaign by similar organisations across the UK. 

The campaign - which has the slogan #MenYouAreNotAlone - has been created and organised by the ManKind Initiative charity. 

If you are a male victim of domestic abuse in Shropshire, you can access support.  Don’t suffer alone or in silence.

Asking for help is never easy. However, if you think you might be in an abusive relationship, contacting your local support service can be an important first step. Domestic abuse support services are trained to help you explore your options and help to guide you to make safe decisions that are right for you. 

You can access support using the contacts and links below:
